THIS WENT ✨VIRAL✨ ON TikTok!!! MONEY SAVING SOAP HACK!!! 

It must be his fave!!!

Yo my mom used to make me wash my body with this growing up! Wtf no wonder it smelled nasty and chemically lol

Wait my aunt uses this also I honestly thought it was body soap I wash my hands with it at her house 🤦🏾‍♀️

@@najmatos3555 same every time I would go over there I would use it or if I have something strong on my hands I use it and it makes the smell go away

I thought that soap was for mechanics

I do this

That's what I use!

Barb:. How much of this do u put in the washer and do u put regular laundry soap in with???

@@Thatsright-tr2ks Yes! That's what I'd like to know 🙂

@@FULLtinyHOUSE I meannn, I guess we can Google it 🤣

:O cool

is borax as same used on caram board wouldn't that be deangerous for skin

@@asiartandcraft yes borax can irritate your skin but maybe this guy has tough skin or the amount used isnt enough when spread to a gallon edit: nevermind he uses it for laundry, its fine like that for sure

It doesn't irritate as it is highly diluted when making it this way. It works really well. I've been using it for years

Me in the bathroom making potions while my mom’s gone:

Peroxide is great also

Yes, it's great for that!!!

Ooooh, that's a great idea! Tfs

So is salt

Mayra Gradilla- THANK YOU!!!!!!

🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️

Tide is chemical warfare, anyway. I can’t stand the smell of Tide and Gain. Friends that use Tide will literally smell our house up when they hang out for a couple hours. It’ll take a day to air it out. No joke.

@@Bb-bk5xg Same here, I run my air purifiers on the highest setting for 30 minutes and that does the job👍🏻

Your Mom,,is a wise woman, she is saving money and saving the planet!!

@@Bb-bk5xg there is unscented

You are not alone ahaha

same

I thought it was soft clay for slime lol

Same😩 then I got hungry

I thought it was white chocolate

You can thank Spanish colonization for that

Duh

Cuz spanish u dummy

@Lucy people in general have done a lot of bad

@moon dust but spain actually colonized mexico AND the philippines...

Dove Soap is Creamy

It is creamy. Super easy to shred and cut because it's soft. I use the pink one on my laundry soap

​@@Stephy00ninelike a bar a load?

It's so satisfying...seeing all the makeup come off!!!

@@BunnyBirdyGatorooi07p998888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888889p8o8o6j

I use it for my beauty sponges.

It’s true and I used to buy the $40 beauty blender black soap 🧼, NEVER again after cleaning my brushes. This is AMAZING.. I had no idea until two years ago..

Girl. Best thing ever. Scrolled to see if someone mentioned this exact thing. Super cleans brushes.

I do that plus 1 box of borax.

What does the laundry smell like? I love the smell of Gain or Tide detergent

@@NotJessH Citronella, but it’s not a really strong scent.

Whats the difference between washing soda and baking soda? I guess i could google but id prefer human interaction :) ty!

@@CH-sl1ug I’m not entirely sure, but you can eat baking soda, brush your teeth with it, stuff like that, but you shouldn’t ingest washing soda.

One time my mom went to the store and asked “tienen jabón zote?” And the guy said “no, solo Jaboncito” lmao

All you did was translate this? Thought it was gonna be something way different like Latam: chiflado or garrote or el sop USA: Zore soap

@@ceezb5629what happens is that in English the name "Zote soap" has no other meaning than that, that of a soap named Zote by the company that produces it. But in Spanish there is something called “augmentative” which are, basically, suffixes that make the object we are referring to have a greater size or importance. By applying an augmentative to the word “jabón” it becomes “jabonzote”, which is pronounced exactly the same as “jabón Zote”. In short, “jabón Zote” is a play on words that implicitly refers to the fact that the soap in question is large.

@@ceezb5629 in Spanish Jabonzote would mean huge soap in English makes no sense

It's still cheap

@Ms Palmer 🤣🤣🤣 Yyep!!!

Yup

🤣

Stock up.

Your comfort soap.

@@BunnyBirdyGator Love your channel... Hola, from the border of Texas and Tamaulipas Mex.

@@mariadominguez3308 when you shower with it does it burn the private areas?

@@yvette.3075 It doesn’t burn me at all. My family uses the Jabón Zote too. (It was recommended to me by a Mexican Dr.) I’ve been using it for almost 15 years.

@@mariadominguez3308 Can you use as shampoo also per your doctor ❓thank you 👍🏻😁

Hmm great idea, id still use all the peeled of parts 😆

Oh great tip❣️Gracias 💫

Jose Garcia Thank you so much for the great tip!! Gona try this.

Down here in Texas we need all the mosquito tips we can get ! Instructions on how to apply?

@@melissainge218 just shower with it lol like regular soap 😂

^^^^Lmfao she asked for tips on how to apply soap 😂😂😂😂😂

We should all appreciate each others culture!!!!

@@BunnyBirdyGator debes también apreciar tu propia cultura, eso también te hace especial y unica. nwn

Thanks for sharing!

Hiii Pamela!!!

@@BunnyBirdyGator omg Hiiiii 💕

I was about to say this and the Foca I grew up with.

@@reallyfijateperocomocono1131 Foca is also really good for clothes and the enviroment hahaha also the Roma! they smell soooooo good c:

@@SoyPamsito Oh those detergents bring memories back, they are classics in Mexican culture.

Soap IS all plant based

This is fascinating! I’ve developed a hormonal sweating issue and I want to try this. Do they bathe using the white or pink zote?

But that doesn't sound good.. That sounds like it would be blocking/clogging pores & sweat glands? As someone who lives in very hot sunny Florida, I'd love to know if it really did that or not... Just scares me. Anything that is "so good at stripping chemicals off" anything (skin, hair, clothes) -- HOW could those chemicals be good for you? My brain just keeps screaming cancer, lol, but I'm also hella paranoid 🤦🏻‍♀️

@@Witchy-Wonderland it doesnt clog pores, it strips the oils and moisture from your skin, which isn't much better, but you gotta do what you gotta do

@@kkilljoy3588 use the pink its more gentle.

It does bc I've used it for dark marks

It's great!!!

Criminal complaint against your correct I don't use soap on my body at all I playing with just water and oil

My microphone is messed up I didn't say that what I said was that I don't use soap at all because it is detergent shampoos detergent based use just clear water and Infused o i l s

How do I use it?

I was thinking about octagon the other day

Exactly what use on my grandchildren clothes…….Zote for stains

Ivory Soap gave me Migrains for many years.. it was all.i used... When I changed to zest, I never had another migrain !! It was the Soap that floats and it was cheap living on my own .. BLiNDING MIGRAINS.. be carefull.

@@Shuggies how did it gave you migraines? I'm genuinely curious

I think it's great for everything.

I Wudnt have my guest ya using that without knowing !

I find it at walmart for 99 cents!

A mi me sirvió para controlar la grasa de la cara, me pongo espuma y me lavo antes de dormir.

Which one? The pink or white one?

Oh no....

Allergies can develop at any time to pretty much anything you’re in contact with. You might be fine for bee stings your entire life, then *bam,* you’re 45 and get stung and have to hit the ER. I do think it’s usually to things you have repeated contact, though.

Shes allergic to citronella. Try the white bar its unscented?

Definitely

Some scents from our past are painful...makes you feel it right in the chest.

Stay away from citronella.

I'm still seeing it for about a dollar in all my stores.

oh I'm sure the price will go up. They always do that with any and everything.

It went viral many years ago too with the makeup community because it washes makeup brushes sooo great . Price didn’t rise :)

You know?! 😆

I know it has been around for a long time.

@@valeriab9735 shall we tell them one can make soap jelly too from this or any left over bar soap??? Or should we keep it secret?

@@swahilifood haha I just made some specifically for whites. Same ingredients except I didn't use pink zotes I used white lot less water bout a quart. Have a blessed Easter

@@swahilifood please tell; inquiring minds want to know.

I also use Fels Napa...but like Zote better.

I do like felths naphtha breed then zote it’s more powerful

Yes...I know it's very loved and trusted. I love the Pink and the White...and will be trying the blue one soon.

The point of the video is that its super cheap. Some places it's less than $1 but it will be 25 bucks because of tiktok

This is new for me too

Same!

Ditto!!

Our grandmas used it for many purposes including washing their hair. it’s a classic and favourite of many Mexicans moms.

I guess people assume if it's being sold for so cheap, it's probably made cheap, with questionable cheap ingredients. Same reason people don't buy or trust certain things from the $1 store.

dumb tiktok video to clickbait

I've seen people just throw it into the wash. When the wash is over the take it out and put it in a zip lock bag. I never knew how it worked until now.

You grind it up and mix it with other cleaners too.

Thanks for sharing Valeria!!!

I do as well want to learn

It's a Mexican thing. In Texas it's pretty common.

Yes...I bet it keeps your uniform sooo white.

Does it disolve in the water?? Do you cut up pieces and throw them in the washer?? Never used the soap, but now that everyone says it works good for white linen, I'm trying it.

Sofia Coronado- thx for sharing that. I will try!

I love it for cleaning brushes too!!!

Yes...I love it!!! I really want to try the blue bar too!!!

@@BunnyBirdyGator Yes! That one is even better.

I really want to try the blue bar too!!!

Wish we had a dollar zone...but I can always find it at Walmart.

@@BunnyBirdyGatordollar general, tree should also have it.

Do you use it for laundry and your body?

I'd like to try Perla!!!

That sounds fun!!!

I used the potatoes slicers to shreds.

For how long in microwave?

Zote to the rescue!!!

Wal-Mart

Mexican grocery stores and Walmart

You can find it at Walmart. Not the soap section, but on the top self in the detergent area.

It's the best!!!

The pink bar is sooo pretty!!!

An you use it on colors?

@@angelac273 yes, I do.

.99 cent store has it

Only buy this soap at Dollar stores or Mexican Markets. You're paying more for flake shavings of this soap at Walmart. You get more shavings on your on from 1 soap bar. Have fun.

@@GloriaBoules thank you I found the bars and bought 4 white and 2 pink. It works great. My husband thinks it smells like ivory soap.

So when it comes to modern washing machines you actually don’t want too much suds because they often don’t rinse out all the soap if there’s too much. You can end up with soap buildup which can be really irritating to skin.

How do you like it?

They make my makeup brushes sooo clean!!!

I'm definitely buying one to clean my brushes.

Another tip. Most soaps have extra water now. So if you put the soap bars in your clothing drawers or closets and let them age for about 6 months to a year(or longer I just found a bar of lavender soap from 2014 lol. Hubby must never change out his bars from his tighty whitey drawer lol its fine and in the shower) They cure down and shrink a bit but-they last longer while in use. No more nasty melting soap bars in the shower or next to the sink. Its another way companies hose us and give us less for our money.. I have made my own soap before (cold process not melt and pour) and it also has to cure for a few months.

@@Emeraldwitch30 ooooo, that’s interesting. I’ll try that

@@walkingarmageddon5479 you are welcome. I tend to buy my favorite soap on sale and just tuck it into the clothing and cupboard. The lavender soap keeps moths away from my wool sweaters too. And my socks and shirts all smell nice

@@Emeraldwitch30 ok now I’m definitely trying that

It's nice...I like to use it as hand soap!!

It's amazing!!! My favorite for laundry, cleaning makeup brushes...just a perfect multi-purpose soap and gentle enough for skin too.

There’s a recipe floating around on RU-vid somewhere but you don’t cut the bars you grate them. End result, homemade laundry detergent!!

It's in the laundry isle

@@janicechambers9586 yes it works great. I did washing soda, borax, and the shredded site. And if you want fragrance add essential oil.

What was wrong with the prison bar soap?

@@lela2216 it's hard to explain it was like unspoken rule for county city jail and state prison I'm not sure about how the men dealt with the soap. But it was really harsh on skin and really dried out the skin. And also didn't use the deodorant it made you stink I swear on everything I'm not sure how a company can make the a product for something and it does the exact opposite. It was called Bob Barker oh and the little shampoo they give you is clear so we would put orange peel in there to smell good and vitamins and use that as soap and just buy shampoo and conditioner VO5 or swave was the best price. Normal size of Pantine was 8$ ish in Marysville ohio women prison if anyone has any more questions please ask.

@@sarahparkinson8844 that's smart. I love how creative/ resourceful people get while incarcerated. Thanks for sharing!! & Bob Barker! 😂😂

@@theshadylady1982 hell ya It said bob barker idk about all the women's prison because I try not to visit . And the so called meat comes in a box that says not for animal consumption. My thing is if I can't feed it to my cat or dog then how can people eat it

@@sarahparkinson8844 I agree with you 100 percent

Thanks for taking the time to share such a pro tip! I'd love to learn more from you. Do you have a channel?
